SAF - FAIRVIEW AW   22 Dec 2025
 
GOING:

#YOUCANBETONUS! MAIDEN PLATE 1600m

Track: STANDARD      

Khichdi and Aethelwulf possess good early speed and will set a genuine tempo. WARRIOR'S EDGE (9) made his debut last start at a big quote but defied the market to grab third, beaten 2 lengths, over 1400m at Fairview. Likely improver who should go well. BUGLE (5) ran below expectations last time at this track, finishing seventh and beaten 20 lengths starting at $3.50. Well placed and there is no reason he cannot find winning ways. AETHELWULF (6) has been in the money four times including last start on December 5 when second over 1600m at this track. Has recorded two top-three finishes from four runs at this venue. Sure to be about the money again. BOMBER BAY (2) raced below his best last time when sixth over 1400m at this track, beaten 8 lengths. Has his share of ability and can do a lot better.
